Social launch pack

Facebook-ready copy and creative, approval-gated.

Use this pack for page setup, organic daily posts and small-budget subscriber tests once the editor approves public posting and paid spend. Static prep only: no post, ad or spend is triggered here.

Do not create public posts, launch paid ads, contact page admins, spend money or imply live circulation without fresh approval.
